No long speeches, no long ugly crying, just a plain burst of sorry and a short real cry, that's what made this scene so realistic and props to Nick Mohammed for the fantastic acting.
And what I like about it is that other shows would try to make a giant production and a monologue out of it. It was simple, to the point. As it should be. And Nick played it perfectly.
And that might be another submission for Nick Mohammed for supporting actor. He didn't have a lot of screen time this season, but the time he had he made the most of.
I knew when he made his "heel-turn" they were gonna bring him back in a meaningful and beautiful way. He was never a mean or spiteful person really, he had a good heart and made some mistakes, like we all do. The world he was living in was cruel to him for a long time, and he just had to walk a different, not as pretty path to his self-betterment because of that. His true character shone through when he realized that and tried to make amends. We should all be so lucky to have friends(family) who welcome us back with open arms when we apologize for our flaws and mistakes like Ted and the team did. Definitely one of my favorite character journeys of the season. Also his violin playing is gorgeous
He had built up a lot of insecurities due to his relationship with his father growing up. Because of that, he tied his self worth to the approval of others. So when Ted came along and treated him with respect and dignity for no other reason than he already deserved it, it made him feel a confidence he never felt before. And so when it seemed to him that Ted was pulling away, it shattered him. And because he didn't recognize or understand his own codependency issues, he blamed Ted for those negative feelings. Nate was never really a heel, he was more of a child lashing out because Ted was giving more attention to the "new baby" (Roy).
I like how Nate’s surprise reaction to Ted in this scene mirrors the reaction to seeing his dad while he was playing the violin. It definitely shows that Ted was a similar father figure in Nate’s life.
i think the father figure thing WAS the issue. Ted recognized that Nate was looking for a father figure. but Ted respected Nate enough to know Nate didn’t need that. but that appeared like abandonment from Nate’s POV. when Rupert showed how lousy he was as a father figure, and Nate’s dad actually acknowledging Nate’s genius, that’s when Nate realized he did NOT need a father figure and that he was his own man.
I like to think that Nate is always caught off guard because hes always constantly in his head. Wether it be playing the violin, staring at a empty blue walk thinking over his mistakes, or having another stroke of football-related genius
The true nature of Nate was always going to shine through. It would have eventually rotted him from the inside, if he tried to be like Rupert. It wasn’t who he was, even with his emotional demons.
See the story with Nate was that in season one was that he was very submissive. He life he’s been pushed down and never thought he was good enough. When ted came along he built Nate up. Gave him that confidence and made him feel special. Then ted in season two saw Nate as an equal not someone beneath him. Nate didn’t feel that way and without ted constant validation nate felt abandoned. Season 3 after speaking with his dad I think Nate realized how ted truly felt and what he thought about him and saw him as an equal. Also with Jade it helped him realize that Ted never abandoned him. That’s why this scene was so special Bc Ted never once ever stopped believing in Nate and Nate finally understood that.
At the end of season 2, I was fully invested in Nate taking over as Richmond’s new head coach when Ted left, but I guess Roy is better in front of the press and relating/managing players while Nate is better in the background as the tactician.
My sense is that Nate has more to learn about leading a team. At some point he'll either replace Roy or move on to his own team. A good mentor wants you to leave, a great one knows you will.
Thought they blew a few things. Nate should have gone to Ted's apartment to apologize and then see the picture he gifted and the importance it had to Ted. Also, how could they NOT have ended the series with Trent narrating some final words from his book summarizing the AFC Richmond way. They blew that one bigtime IMO.
He'd make a wonderful coach of a women's volleyball team And I'd certainly hope we'd get to see more game footage than we did with football. Purely for reasons that just help the game get more known of course.
Nate's too talented to be wasted as a kitman. He's probably best suited to being a assistant manager, influences tactics but doesn't have the pressure of being in the spotlight.
I just wished Ted said a little something more. Like he was proud of Nate for what he accomplished and also overcoming weaknesses and finding his true self. The writing wasn't so good for the finale.
I disagree. One of Nates central flaws was his need for constant, positive, active affirmation. I think Ted's understated handling of the situation was wise. Ted treated him like a peer and it's a challenge to Nates character going forward to see if he can inhabit that role with confidence and integrity.

Great acting here. That apology was eating at him. He needed so bad to get it out. You could feel that…and that’s great acting.

Brett Goldstein, Phil Dunster, Billy Harris and Toheeb Jimob as well this season. What a cast
His acting here made me tear up more than any other part of the finale
@@louisdale7163 Can't forget Hannah Waddington and Juno Temple
The scene where he’s playing the violin and his dad comes in is another submission for Nick
@@ivankreger Sadly neither he nor the actor who played Beard got nominated for this season. Humongous snubs imo

He was such a good heel though

“Oh, buddy…”
So good.
Such an amazing series. There's never been anything like it.
I’m so glad he finally apologized

The redemption was awesome
I disagree. After Jamie's wonderful redemption arc last season, I was expecting much better.
At the end of season 2, I was fully invested in Nate taking over as Richmond’s new head coach when Ted left, but I guess Roy is better in front of the press and relating/managing players while Nate is better in the background as the tactician.

If you really think about. Ted Lasso is the supporting character in the way he supports every single person he comes across to enrich their lives
Ted's reaction at 00:46 shatters me.
Same
It’s got me ugly cryin’
Nick Mohammed's acting in this is simply fantastic!
This conversation and the one just before Nate rips up the sign is simply amazing.
Just amazing.
Such a good scene
That’s what Grace in action looks like.
I loved Nate in this scene so much.
Damn it was a nice surprise hearing Ben Folds start playing at the end there
Ted lasso just a human reaching for higher ground
Thought they blew a few things. Nate should have gone to Ted's apartment to apologize and then see the picture he gifted and the importance it had to Ted. Also, how could they NOT have ended the series with Trent narrating some final words from his book summarizing the AFC Richmond way. They blew that one bigtime IMO.
They needed this... so do I T-T
What is the tune you use at the end of your clips? I think it's great
Ted Lasso should be a lacrosse coach next
He'd make a wonderful coach of a women's volleyball team
And I'd certainly hope we'd get to see more game footage than we did with football.
Purely for reasons that just help the game get more known of course.
Did Nate see out his days sorting out kit or did he get back on the coaching/management team?
Nate's too talented to be wasted as a kitman. He's probably best suited to being a assistant manager, influences tactics but doesn't have the pressure of being in the spotlight.
He is initially back to assist the kitman. But he comes on as a manager after they win and Ted leaves.
I just wished Ted said a little something more. Like he was proud of Nate for what he accomplished and also overcoming weaknesses and finding his true self. The writing wasn't so good for the finale.
